Moving to
Moorestown-Lenola.

$1,648/mo median rent

Rent runs on the higher side, at $1,648 a month median. Whether that premium makes sense usually comes down to the local job market and what it pays. Home prices are steep, with a median around $581,700. Renting first to get a feel for the city before buying is often the more practical route.

4.8% county unemployment

Unemployment in Burlington County is 4.8%, somewhat above the national average of 4.3%. Lining up work before the move is the safer route. That's the county-wide rate; BLS doesn't measure a place this size on its own.

91 violent crimes per 100k

Safety is genuinely one of the selling points here. Both violent and property crime run well below the national average, the kind of numbers that fade into the background after a week of living somewhere.

24 min average commute

Commutes are reasonable, averaging 23.8 minutes. Nothing heroic, and there's still time left over for a life after work. 7 in 10 workers drive to work; 24% work from home.

64% bachelor's degree or higher

This is a highly educated city, with over half the adult population holding a college degree. That tends to shape the job market and the broader culture, and it's a solid indicator of a strong professional scene.

2 public schools inside the boundary

There are 2 public schools inside the boundary and 5 private schools. The student-to-teacher ratio is 13:1, well below the national average of 16:1. Smaller class sizes are generally a positive sign for a district.
